3218-3224 Steiner St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 3218-3224 Steiner Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Lianne O Jeung, has undergone significant improvements and maintenance since its construction in 1915. Most recently, in January 2024, a substantial kitchen and bathroom remodel was completed, including new cabinets, countertops, appliances, and plumbing fixtures, along with the installation of radiant heating with four-zone control. The building has addressed several important safety requirements over the years, including a mandatory soft-story retrofit completed in 2017 (Tier 3) at a cost of $50,000, and a fire alarm system upgrade in 2019 to comply with SFFD requirements, which included installing low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas.

The property has a history of addressing structural and safety concerns, with maintenance performed on various building systems. Notable past work includes dry rot repair of the rear staircase in 2016, reroofing in 2013, and installation of vinyl siding in 1999. The building's code compliance record shows several routine inspections between 1997 and 2017, with some fire and structural issues identified in 2003-2007, including problems with the fire escape drop ladder, stairs, and garage ventilation, all of which were subsequently resolved.

More recent fire safety inspections in 2014-2022 related to alarm systems have been noted as having "Condition Corrected" status. While there was one significant complaint in 2017 involving gas, electrical, and water issues, these were addressed and marked as not active. The building has also experienced regular maintenance issues typical of older properties, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls regarding garbage, debris, and other urban maintenance matters on the street.
